More Zorro Lounge

I was not aware that this quirky, magical place was actually a chain of cafe bars so I was really surprised when the new cafe at Fox Valley was Zorro Lounge. It is a little smaller but soon as you walk in, that lovely, vintage atmosphere hits you. What was even better was finding out this vibrant cafe bar is also dog friendly. We regularly take our doggies and they are given water bowls and treats.
Zorro Lounge staff are so friendly and the menu is amazing. Brunch is delish and the tapas is so good. I noticed a Vegan and Gluten Free menu too. I love the vibe here and the music played whilst you are relaxing. I also noticed there is a book shelf full of fab books for customers to do a book swap.
We love this eclectic cafe bar that does not feel like a chain of other cafe bars. You genuinely feel there is only one like it! I have heard rumours one is opening in Barnsley so that would be great! This place is so versatile. You can be there one morning having brunch, orange juice and a strong macchiato then the next minute sipping on Pinot Grigio and eating olives with your mates. It's a good place to go for a birthday meal. I will be going on mine!

Live the Pooh way

Live the Pooh way I love this quote from AA Milne. Just to be sure someone is there. To be sure of them. We all need reassurance from time to time. Whether it is for practical reasons, like when I need someone to sit next to me on longer, motorway journeys to hello with the signs so I go North instead of South. That physical presence and reassurance means so much. A reassuring nod of the head and hug. The list goes on. Reassurance is also an emotional thing too. That feeling you can off load onto someone who gets you and has your back. They may only have to listen or say a few words but that bond speaks volumes. No one wants to hear the "I told you so" lecture. We have already berated ourselves enough as it is. Just sit with each other, listen and empathise where needed. Or bring them tea and honey until they feel right again! This quote is so true too. Those friends and family who stay when the chips are down, when it gets messy, when it's not about laughing but abou

Bookshop Love

Bookshop Love I have grown up loving bookshops. I have so many lovely memories of bookshops, bookstalls and even book sales in the old library. I always feel better for a visit to a bookstore. All those lovely books waiting to be read, all in one place! I tell myself I am only looking. That I do not need to buy another book. Who am I kidding? I used to go with my dad to our old library to the Discarded book sale. Most books were hardbacks and were 10p or 5p. I would look through every stand and bring about 5 or 6 home with me, the word Discarded in pen across the first page. The summer fairs at various schools had fab book stalls too.  I loved our town library and visited regularly with my parents as a child. I loved choosing the books and getting them stamped. It was such a lovely atmosphere, downstairs in the children's library, especially after school in winter, all cosy, curled up with a book. I loved both my school libraries. Our secondary school library was a magical place an

A breath of fresh air

A breath of fresh air I love this quote. It is such a lovely thing to get some fresh air. It is also good to be fresh yourself too! And to surround yourself with others who are fresh thinking! Those who are like a little whirlwind, stirring up your passion to do things creative! I am lucky to know quite a few people like this! I have been called this too, in a few teaching jobs. Me with my 'flowery edges'. One of the best compliments I have ever had. I love compliments that don't just cover your dress sense and choice of hair colour. What is your vibe like? Once in a while, that needs complimenting too! When we are feeling a bit stuck inside, as in these lockdowns, or in Winter, it is lovely to wrap up warm and get out in the fresh air. I think we appreciate being back indoors then, with our hot chocolate and a book or a film. This photo from pinterest is so cosy and inviting.  This made me laugh, from pinterest. We have a totally different mindset when the spring comes and
